Alas, I'm afraid the mass of holiday paugh has overcome paugh-seekers in one fruitcaked mass. Due to few (only Paughfan212) submissions, I'm going to cancel 2012's contest and propose a new contest in 2013. I'll let you guys know sooner next time 'round! I'll post some of Paughfan's submissions in the meantime. Happy Holidays!

Good day to you all. It's that time of year again! It was my intention to have Paughflap completely up-to-date by the time of the Christmas Contest, but alas, time has run out on me.

The show must go on, however, so everyone may begin submitting their Christmas paugh finds now. Submissions will be evaluated and a winner will be chosen and announced with the featured Christmas post!

So, that's only a week away!

The winner will also receive the coveted Christmas flan! Paughfan212 can testify the exhausting blandness that arrived at his doorstep last year. It could be yours!

Please send all submissions (files, links, etc.) to olneyfowler@gmail.com. I expect quality submissions from Willa, Jesse Fried, Paughfan 212, Paughfan 903, and anyone else out there who would like to take a stab at the top prize!

What is Paugh?

The intent of this website it so educate the populous on the existence of paugh, illustrate how to identify paugh, and if you are paugh, show you how to embrace it.
"Paugh" was first discovered during a viewing of the movie "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels." Steve Martin's "Ruprecht" character helped form the original inspiration for Paugh as we know it today. It was only discussed in small circles until 2000 when Josh Teague publicly imitated Ruprecht and experienced paugh first hand. He mentally documented the experience though was not fully able to develop a full understanding of paugh by himself. In 2003 Josh presented his findings to his fellow researchers of the world Michael R. Nelson and William H. Mather. Over the next three years these great minds developed a greater understanding of the phenomenon of paugh and began documenting it visually. In January of 2005, paugh went to the public in the form of this website. Since then, Mike, Josh, and Will have conscripted the noble paugh theologians Leon O. Fowler,Jeremy Z. Van Hill, and Brett Q. Gilbert to help build to the paugh research database. This website is a product of their labor, finding, illustrating, and sometimes creating paugh for the greater good of the world. May god bless their work.
